Sandi Thom opens up about her post-partum depression in new single Tightrope

Sandi opened up about the challenges she had with post-partum depression after the birth of her son, Logan, last year.

The singer told SR News: “The tightrope thing to me was a good way of describing the sort of balancing act between almost being on the edge of losing it and at the same time having to be a functioning mother.

“It’s hard to put it into words even in a conversation, you sometimes struggle to explain what it feels like.”

The singer spoke of being ashamed of her illness but also told other mums that they shouldn’t be ashamed of going to see their doctor about it.
